Used, Abused, Unamused

Fear is the maintainer of this living death called

system

Lied to to comply and never ask why

There’s people out here building bombs

People out here righting your wrongs

People out here dying in pain

People out here crying in vain

People out here who just want grain

While you just sit and watch playing life and death

games

Still, we accept it ’cos you know best

No you don’t, just a few can’t rule the rest

So much we could do if we’d only realise

Like fighting for peace instead of watching the skies

Like seeing our stupidity, blindness, hilarity

As being only moulded so we can then maybe clarify

Instead of turning a blind eye to maintain some sort of

sanity

There’s a big difference between need and greed

They tell us ‘sign this box, we’ll make things better’

They’re out to fool you, you’ve got to be clever

Voting concedes incapability to run your own life

Well how would you know if you ain’t ever tried?

Gotta fight back and refuse to be ruled,

To show that we care and we ain’t no-ones fools

We don’t have to stand for the games that they play

Used, Abused, Unamused? Yeah, every day.

Confidence tricksters they take us for a ride

Political jokers, but I don’t see the funny side

They use to the full this system they’ve perfected

Political jokes are funny but not when they get elected

I can see it’s all crap, I’m not as blind as they tell

me

It’s a using, abusing, unamusing story

Maybe we’ll all see we’re not as blind as they think

See the chains? Be yourself. Smash the links.
